Colophon
What’s a colophon? It’s a place where only the truly geeky and insatiably curious tread. In other words, if you don’t already know what a colophon is, you probably don’t care.
The Engine
Screenwriting Manifesto is written, designed, and maintained by screenwriter David Anaxagoras for the sake of his ego and the benefit of all humanity. The site uses WordPress blogging software and is hosted by DreamHost.
The Design
All CSS, XHTML and PHP coding by David Anaxagoras except where noted.
The site design is inspired by several magazine and news-style WordPress themes. Much of the typography and the color scheme were borrowed from the Fresh News theme.
The Extras
The tabbed box on the front page was accomplished with the help of idTabs.
Thumbnail photos and large photos heading the main articles are were accomplished using some WordPress custom fields trickery.
The banner photo is used according to Stock.xchng license agreement. It’s a picture of a red curtain like you might find in a movie theater. Get it?
Icons by Mark James.
Screenplay formatting within posts is made super-easy with the scrippet plugin, now in beta and probably out of beta by the time you read this.
The Web Standards
This site is created with fully validated XHTML 1.1 and CSS. Except for small glitches here and there created by various plugins. For best results, use the most recent release of Mozilla’s Firefox web browser when visiting. If you choose to use Microsoft’s Internet Explorer you deserve everything that happens to you.
